‘What’s a dead giveaway that someone is not a good person?’ – 17 guaranteed tells

It all started when ricky1g asked this over on Reddit.

‘What’s a dead giveaway that someone is not a good person?’

And it prompted no end of people to share their guaranteed tells that someone really isn’t a good person, from the subtle to the bleedin’ obvious and everything in between.

These 17 particularly hit home for us. Remind you of anyone?

4.

‘They never apologise.’

‘How someone treats another person based on their job title. Anyone who treats a server, maid, garbage person, etc like crap is just telling the world how much a piece they are.’

‘They remember you are their friend only when they need something from you.’

8.

‘They constantly say or do things where their only justification for doing so is “It was just a joke” when called out on it.’

‘A lot of times they’ll straight up tell you. Anybody who gleefully tells you “I’m such an asshole” or “I’m such a bitch” is usually not joking, even if they say it while laughing.’
